Manchester, N.H. provider of Domain Name Service (DNS) and e-mail delivery for enterprises Dyn Inc., through its philanthropic arm DynCares, worked behind the scenes of the 121212Concert for Sandy Relief Wednesday.

The 150-person company powered the donation site of the concert created by The Robin Hood Relief Fund to benefit those impacted by Hurricane Sandy.

In an official post on Dyn’c website, Content Marketing Manager Josh Nason wrote, “Being on the East Coast, we understand what a devastating storm Sandy was. However, New Hampshire was relatively unscathed compared to our clients, customers, friends and families down in New York, New Jersey and the Mid-Atlantic states. That’s why I was stoked to hear that we are powering the uptime for the online donation part of Wednesday’s massive 121212 Concert.

Nason pumped up the numerous ways to donate to the relief fund by reminding readers to text ROBINHOOD to 50555 to donate $10, use the Shazam app to donate or buy a friend a 121212 gift via Facebook which will donate $25 to The Robin Hood Relief Fund.

Providing a way to support the relief to those impacted by Hurricane Sandy is only one of many ways the company has paid it forward. Through its DynCares initiative the company encourages employees to invest their time in projects that mean something to them. The company provides financial support to those organizations in which employees support with their personal time.

Since launching the effort in 2010, Dyn has donated more than $185,000 to several organizations including WPI User Experience and Decision Making (UEDM) Research Labs and its employees have pumped more than 2,400 volunteer hours into FIRST Robotics teams, City Year and Families in Transition.
